On Friday, Luviena Lodh posted a one minute, 48-second video on her verified Instagram page claiming that Mahesh Bhatt has been harassing her. She also claimed that she had been married to Bhatt's nephew Sumit Sabharwal, adding that she had filed for a divorce on getting to know that he supplies drugs to actors like Amyra Dastur and Sapna Pabbi. She also alleged that he was into supplying women and that Mahesh Bhatt was aware of the fact.
Speaking in Hindi, Luviena says in her video: "Namaste. My name is Laviena Lodh, and I'm filming this video for the safety of my family and myself. My marriage took place with Mahesh Bhatt's nephew Sumit Sabharwal and I have filed for a divorce on getting to know that he supplies drugs to actors like Amyra Dastur and Sapna Pabbi etc. His phone contains images of numerous girls that he shows to directors, and so he also supplies women.
Now, Pooja Bhatt has come in defense of her father and clarified that Sumit is not the nephew of Mahesh Bhatt. The actress took to Twitter and wrote, "Please note that the lady in question is not a ‘relative’ since the man she was married to-Sumit Sabherwal is not MR Bhatt’s nephew as mentioned, nor related to him in any other way. Sumit is a senior production manager/head of production at @VisheshFilms."
Now, Mahesh Bhatt is all set to take legal action against Ms. Lodh.
